It's tragic isn't it.

You simply go out Xmas shopping and you don't come home.

I know it is being perceived the driver may have had a heart attack.

So many injuries also. Terrible. sad

It makes the very quiet and rather lonely Christmas DH and I are anticipating totally in perspective. Sympathy to all concerned.

Sadly the BBC Newsis saying 7 injured and police not giving a figure for those poor people who have been killed. I cannot imagine how one copes after something like this.

I dont think that they will be able to cope. It will be a matter of getting through.

So reassuring and so sad too. George Square is usually the centre of Glasgow's seasonal celebrations.
